PIONEERING INITIATIVES

Over the last 20 years Science Oxford has developed a range of innovative projects, a number of which are now delivered by others. It played a pioneering role in the development of both innovation centres for the incubation of high-tech companies and in the creation of venture angel networks such as the Oxfordshire Investment Opportunity Network. Oxford Innovation, our own spin-out company, is widely recognised as a leading provider of services to the knowledge-based economy.

EDUCATING THE NEXT GENERATION

Science Oxford has also played a major role in the field of education and public engagement. In the early 1990’s Science Oxford created Oxfordshire Science Festival which is going from strength to strength and instigated innovative science programmes for schools.

ENGAGING THE PUBLIC

In 2005, Science Oxford opened Oxford’s first cultural centre for science and enterprise in St Clements.
